Then how about Muskrat? Maybe he's chilling with out of work Croc Master and Copperhead.

Shit, yeah, Ticker Tocker. My memory ain't what it used to be.

Scooooooooooooooop

Are you guys trying to tell me that when Marc Silvestri gave Stryker three metal arms on one side opposite his human one the handbook explanation of "something something gyroscope" was insufficient?

Okay, finally getting around to opening my Rattler. Starting with Baroness since everyone here seems to fawn all over her. I find her vexing. Why have sexy librarian hair if you can't also put the glasses on well? If she has two accessories that HAVE to go together, it's those two. Best I...

Box set or bust.

Twisted Toyfare/Mego Theater was phenomenal. "Verily, 'tis a Jiffy Pop night."

<needle scratch> F this thread, I now need to hear this story. I had no idea that was possible.

That all seems fair. I especially like the take on this being a fall/winter movie. That's spot on. The lack of zip is funny given the first trailer focused on Ben zipping up HERBIE's sauce.

Fair point. I know Spidey and Ultimates were explicit about that. Was X-Men? Wolverine and Black Panther don't really talk about IIRC.

It's absolutely insane that I can trip over any Mr. Terrific figure except the normal comic look.

Major Bludd was rocking a cybernetic limb in 1983.

I'll add a shout out to Savage Dragon working in real time. I think it works solely because of having the same Writer/Penciller/Inker for the whole run makes staying on target possible. I don't think larger universes with dozens or hundreds of creators could pull it off.

I like Igor Kordey.

My inner addict does not compute "restrictions." And my credit card balance proves it.

My brain does not compute spending large amounts of money on utilitarian items (clothes, cars, food). Somehow I do compute blowing a shitload of money on non-functional things. Want to spend millions on a painting? Knock yourself out. Want to spend so much on shoes that you can't wear them...

I like Morrison on mainstream books - JLA was a hoot, Batman and X-Men were good. His creator-owned/indie stuff just leaves me scratching my head though. I could never make heads or tails of Seaguy.

<Raises hand> I loved that there was a history that "my" versions were building on.

Hell yes to Sherlock! Since her debut I've watched Reacher and have a better sense of what an MP can get into. I always thought Law was just the guy that worked the Checkpoint. Hell - the upcoming Neagley show is basically Sherlock's story.

Do you all not remember the unfiltered joy that was Car Wars? That is if you like math. Our neighbor tried to get his mom and sister to play once. That did not go well.

No update to my list. Get on the Guard Hasbro!

Same here. Sundays are busy so forgot all about them. Nothing in stores yet, but some divers are still hanging around my local spot so hopefully they'll be plentiful.

Watching TTTMU now. I misremembered Hama's quote. He said "A lot of people don't seem to get the fact that the vehicles, that's the main profit margin. The action figures themselves are almost like loss leaders. That's what drives it." So sounds like there was a profit to the guys with that...

The Hama quote is my only recollection of anyone discussing profitability openly in detail. It's been awhile since I watched the Toys That Made Us episode about it, but I want to say they just talked about sales figures overall? I remember the one guy on there saying they wanted a whole years...
